Hon'ble Shri Justice P. Sam Koshy Order On Board 08.03.2022
1. The grievance of petitioner is that though the transfer order/letter has
been issued on 24.01.2022, the petitioner is not being relieved.
2. The issue regarding implementation of transfer order has been
considered by this Court in the case of Ms. Manisha Agrawal v.
State of Chhattisgarh and others, 2015 (4) CGLJ 182 wherein
relying upon several judgments of the Supreme Court, it has been
held by this Court that once the employee has been transferred, it is
required to be complied with unless it is modified, varied or cancelled.
3. Therefore, in these circumstances, either the transfer order has to be
implemented or the State has the option to cancel, vary or modify or
keep in abeyance.
4. Accordingly, the writ petition is disposed of with a direction that if the
transfer order of petitioner is still operative, the respondent authorities
shall relieve the petitioner towards implementation of the aforesaid
transfer order within a period of 30 days from today.
5. It is also made clear that if any administrative exigency impede the
petitioner's relieving, the petitioner shall be informed in writing. It will
also remain open for the respondents to reconsider the issue of
transfer on account of any administrative exigency.
